Beautiful Unique Full/ Queen Size Truck Bed made from a 1858 chevy Apache 3100 pickup truck. The dark blue green with a yellow patina looks amazing. And of course the Tailgate Open into a sturdy bench. The tail lights and dome lights work with LED Lights in them.
I was contacted by a buyer about building this beautiful Unique Queen size bed. I set out to find a 1958 truck to build a bed. The same year her parents were married. I found a stripped 58 cab, and a complete 58 box from 2 different trucks, but from the same owner. I went to work cutting the cab and box from the frame's of the different trucks. I brought them home and started trimming them down for the parts that I needed, then started to build the frame for the queen size bed and fitting the tailgate and rounding off all the sharp edges. I ordered new glass, tailgate hinges and chains, lights for the rear and dome light in the cab. As I e-mailed the buyer about the color she chose a beautiful stock 58 chevy blue green color. We started it off with a creamy yellow base color and topping it off with a beautiful blue / green color. I installed all the accessories, and made a rustic bumper out of wood. We had the privilege to deliver the bed to their beautiful Lake house in Indiana.
